I hope you have the money for this. It won't be cheap.


I'd say go full TO4B or TO4S if your going for high HP. With either an E6X or an LTX from microtech. My own personal list is already topping out at 10k+ dollars when all is said and done.

PS- 10k dollar figure isn't including suspension or "looks"

Yea this **** ain't cheap man...but if you do decide to go with a big turbo, dont cheap out, go with a standalone system from the haltech or microtech and make sure u got enough fuel! What kind of numbers are you looking for? 300-400RWHP or more?

Ask someone thats already made 400 HP, 467 RWHP to be exact. CARX7.

He is using a custom setup with a Garrett turbo, with a Haltech.

Definatly get a Microtech or Haltech.

Not to knowledgable about all the turbo's out there myself but something like a T60 or T66 should suffice for alot of power.
